Activity Trail and Quiz
In 2019, we produced an activity trail and quiz for children that takes you on a journey around the garden (with an accompanied adult). This is completely free to download and use. If you have used it, we would be delighted to hear any feedback and suggestions!
Click here for the quiz and here for the answers.

Activity Sheets
We created a set of activity sheets in 2018 with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund which you can download below.
Some include a useful list of general resources and specific records of creatures found in the Bohemia Walled Garden and Summerfields Wood in Hastings, East Sussex.
They are based on activities we did locally, but can be adapted for use in other open spaces.
| An art activity to learn about these wonderful creatures.
|
| An art activity to aid learning about mysterious moths.
|
| See an example of a tree identification quiz and trail that can be adapted to other woods. Also instructions on how to measure and age trees.
|
| Walk through a wood or other open space and see how many flowers you can identify with an art activity to aid learning.
|
| Learn all about worms and how to build your own wormery. Find out how important they are to gardeners

All of the activity sheets and resources are available in one file by clicking here.
